[15] food banks [...] in Windsor [...] See which or how many do home deliveries.

Great idea!!! I've known they exist, but in my 10 years here, mostly in a fog, I'd never used them, forgot about them, and had no idea there were 15. Considering the hysteria and new normal delivery-economy, plus previous disabled/elderly services, I'm guessing they would do home deliveries. Even if they don't provide gourmet sustenance I'm quite certain it will help supplement my usual limited menu - plus I can save the extra non-perishable for dire times and/or neighbours in need.

I don't have much, but I share a large empty half-empty basement that could become a minor neighbourhood pantry if we all organized and collaborated on it, with or without the food banks.

My local Compuwave is far too small for discounts, but I can try. I'm the only kind of guy there that needs large hard drives. I'm hoping my digital hoarding will finally pay off if my /s/LeverMind videos find support so that I can also build a home for my decentralized PeerTube instance, Volun.Tube, coming sooner or later.

Walmart delivers for $10 through a 3rd party plus I always put $10 in the driver's fist. I'm thinking of walking the 5.6 km there after 9/11 to get a few things on a cool day. From that I can determine whether I can do it more often. I could lose some weight and I already walk 5.1km every Saturday to our weekly Freedom Rallies. I turn 51 on 9/13. I'm not as old as I used to be.

When I was 51, I was still reading LOTR to my son at bedtime. Now he's a navy pilot. Keep up the walking and health stuff, and you too can be this old some day.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go check my lawn for trespassers.

Ye old Node on the evolutionary tree.

I'm too immature to be parental and would likely have had a kid as resentful as I am or more so.
